  Destroy All Humans! Big Willy Unleashed

  Wii review by Justin Boot - Saturday 29th March 2008

  “It’s hard, sometimes. Exterminating the human race, I mean. Wiping out random people can be a fun, fulfilling pastime, but there are just so many ways to do it. High voltage electrocution, laser beams, fiery explosions, zombie outbreaks… technology provides so many different possibilities. It can be tough choosing the most satisfying method of slaughter, especially if you’ve got a good imagination. Actually killing a...” Read more »

  Soapbox: A Wii Little Problem?

  Wii opinion by Oliver Banham - Wednesday 5th March 2008

  “When the Wii was finally revealed at the Tokyo Games Show in 2005, it certainly came under a barrage of mixed opinions. Its abilities were nothing less than exciting; its name maybe less so. That name; the obscure - for better or worse - Wii, was the cause of much controversy and disagreement. While it had a few passionate supporters, most were either sceptical of...” Read more »

  No More Heroes

  Wii review by Bart Robson - Tuesday 5th February 2008

  “Recently, the gaming industry has been plagued with scandals over violence, sex, and general "inappropriateness". Mass Effect, Bioshock, Manhunt... anything and everything seems to be fair game for a jolly good thumping by the news these days. No More Heroes, the latest game from Suda51, features enough controversial material for about ten games, but I bet you here and now that the media won't even...” Read more »

  Super Smash Bros. Brawl

  Wii review by Patrick Coakley - Monday 4th February 2008

  “After years of waiting that were lengthened by numerous delays, Super Smash Bros. Brawl has finally hit the shelves of Japan. While most gamers will have to wait until March (or later, for those outside of North America) to get their hands on this title, an estimated 500,000 copies have fallen into the hands of players in Japan, including myself. After putting quite a bit...” Read more »

  The King of Fighters '94

  Wii review by Justin Boot - Sunday 3rd February 2008

  “It’s just another boring day at the office. As a mass murderer and leader of the international black market, Rugal doesn’t really have the time or patience for conventional fun. When he’s not busy slaughtering innocent people or conducting illegal operations, his life is pretty dull. His only real hobby is collecting trophies. Of course, they’re not the kind of brass cups and miniature figurines...” Read more »

  Sin and Punishment

  Wii review by Justin Boot - Monday 21st January 2008

  “Saki’s having a bad day. Well, worse than usual. His morning started with a shootout. Nothing too serious; Saki is one Hell of a gunslinger, and these Armed Volunteer goons can be taken out with a few bullet sprays. He must have murdered dozens – no, hundreds - of those armored warriors. But it’s getting old. You’d think that the government would take a hint...” Read more »

  NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams

  Wii review by Justin Boot - Monday 14th January 2008

  “Hey. You awake? Don’t be so sure. How do you know? You could be slumped in your chair, drenching your keyboard in drool. Maybe the morning sunlight is creeping through the nearest window. It’s not like that would wake you up, anyway. You’re too far-gone to see it. You’re wandering through that strange and mysterious place called your subconscious, where reality and thoughts blend to...” Read more »

  Ninjabread Man

  Wii review by Philip Morton - Sunday 6th January 2008

  “There’s trouble in Candy Land. This once sweet and tasty utopia has come under attack from a barbarian horde of cupcakes, jelly monsters, angry bees and other nefarious beings. All is not lost though, because the toughest cookie of them all is here to save the day. Ninjabread Man is a samurai sword wielding badass with a grudge to settle, ready to slice his enemies...” Read more »

  Alien Soldier

  Wii review by Justin Boot - Thursday 3rd January 2008

  “Mankind is doomed. That’s really all there is to it. The Scarlets – parasites that can basically infect anything you can think of – have ravaged the population. Despite their dominating presence, however, there’s something wrong in the upper ranks of the organization. Xi-Tiger, the leader of the group, has been called into question over his brutal methods. The fact that he usurped his position...” Read more »

  Ghost Squad

  Wii review by Justin Boot - Friday 21st December 2007

  “It’s quiet. Too quiet. You can hear the water lapping against the lakeshore, and a lone cricket greeting the evening. The sun is setting behind a wall of pine trees. Faced with such serenity, you could almost forget that the place is infested with terrorists. Somewhere inside this lakeside villa, they’re holding the President and others hostage. There will be no negotiations involved here; you’re...” Read more »

  Victorious Boxers: Revolution

  Wii review by Justin Boot - Friday 21st December 2007

  “Get up. Come on, this isn’t the time to be lazy. You think mastering the Boxing game on Wii Sports gives you the right to start slacking off? You think you’re ready for this fight, don’t you? See that guy across the ring? That’s no Mii character. That’s Ichiro Miyata, and he will crush your face in if you don’t defend yourself. There are even...” Read more »

  Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

  Wii review by Kelvin Tay - Thursday 13th December 2007

  “The Space Pirates just don't know when to give up. Six months after the events that transpired on Aether, the Galactic Federation is still struggling to keep the power-hungry alien race at bay. But it has recently enlisted several top-notch bounty hunters to help out, including the legendary Samus Aran, heroine of the Metroid series. If the Space Pirates want a war, they've got it. ...” Read more »

  Shoot from the Lip: Nintendo Where?

  Wii opinion by James Frazer - Saturday 8th December 2007

  “Whose dick do I have to suck to buy a bog standard, on-its-own Nintendo Wii around here? In the weeks before Christmas I've started to notice a growing trend in the highstreet and online retailers of bundling shovelware with the console for astronomical prices – shit you just don't need. My personal experience came in the form of a Currys advert in our...” Read more »

  Geometry Wars Galaxies

  Wii review by Bart Robson - Sunday 25th November 2007

  “Whoever decided to release a game with the subtitle Galaxies a week after Super Mario Galaxy came out probably wasn't the brightest crayon in the box when it came to marketing decisions. With that being said, Geometry Wars Galaxies is a fantastic pseudo-sequel to an Xbox 360 Arcade classic. What's it doing on the Wii? Who knows, but whoever made that decision is a marketing...” Read more »
